AI-Powered Machine Sorts Lego Bricks to Cut Landfill Waste
Original: Lego Brick Sorting Machine Uses AI to Save Millions from Landfill [video]
A new machine that uses artificial intelligence to sort Lego bricks by colour and shape is being presented as a way to keep millions of used bricks out of landfill. The automated sorting system could make large-scale reuse of second-hand Lego viable, an area where manual sorting has previously been too costly. The project is drawing attention for combining computer vision with recycling.
Why now: The promise of automating toy recycling at scale and diverting millions of bricks from landfill is striking to technologists and environmentalists alike.
